Join me for a regular live group meditation session for LGBTQ+ people and their allies every Wednesday at 8pm GMT/UTC.

Those of us who are LGBTQ+ are more likely to experience mental health problems such as depression and anxiety so it's really important we invest energies into looking after ourselves. Meditation and mindfulness provide us with ways to do this by encouraging us to slow down, refocus, get back in touch with our bodies and cultivate warm, positive feelings. By taking part in group sessions, we create a supportive and healing atmosphere that can really amplify the positives we gain from meditation.

It is possible that challenging emotions surface in the course of a meditation. This is perfectly normal. Part of the process is accepting our feelings and allowing them to just be. If this happens for you in a session and you would like some support with it, please do let me know. I do recommend my video How to Sit With Your Emotions for those who may have trouble with such experiences.
